Fundacion Valenciaport targets cutting-edge 5g mobile laboratory

The aim of this initiative is to drive the development of mobile communications, advanced computing, digital twins, immersive applications and other next-generation technologies. The laboratory will consist of shared infrastructure, located at both the Port of Valencia and in the UPV, which will connect both entities by means of a dedicated high-capacity fibre optic connection.

Fundación Valenciaport further states that this latest development is a “driving agent for future innovation projects” with expansion of mobile communication, advanced computing and digital twins

Indeed, the 5G+ VLCPortLab project represents a major step forward in the expansion of Fundación Valenciaport’s infrastructure by providing comprehensive support to ongoing projects within the port environment. For example, the European initiative IMAGINE B5G, in which emergency and security use cases will be tested and the national projects of the UNICO 5G R&D plan Advancing 5G Digital Twins, with which real-time digital twin pilots are carried out, or the 5GNACAR of the UNICO 5G Sectorial plan, focused on the intelligent management of the 5G network.

The Valenciaport Foundation is a centre for Applied Research, Innovation and Training, at the service of the cluster port logistics at the Port of Valencia, Spain.
